On the day Megan Thee Stallion released her highly anticipated album “Rattle,” her security guard, Jonathan Wright, found himself in legal trouble. The Houston Police Department reported his arrest on that significant day.
Wright was apprehended and faced charges related to the illegal possession of a weapon, a Class A misdemeanor, which took place on June 28, 2024. The arrest occurred outside a recording studio in Houston while Megan was there working on her album.
The involvement of law enforcement was prompted by a call from an onlooker who observed Wright waving a gun, seemingly in a threatening manner. Police, upon arrival, confirmed the presence of a weapon on Wright and detained him immediately.
As of now, Megan Thee Stallion hasn’t made any public comments about the incident. However, a spokesperson for the rapper confirmed her safety and stated that her primary focus remains on her new music project. The spokesperson shared, “Megan Thee Stallion appreciates her fans’ continual support and is concentrating on her new album.”
This incident came as a shock to many, as Wright had established himself as a trustworthy professional over his years of service as Megan’s security guard. It remains to be seen whether this event will influence his ongoing employment with the rap star.
The release of “Rattle” has been eagerly awaited by Megan’s followers, marking her first major project since “Good News” in 2023. The album boasts collaborations with notable artists like Cardi B and Beyoncé.
Despite the day’s unexpected developments, the rapper is keeping her attention on the promotion of “Rattle” and her upcoming engagements at music festivals and concerts.
The investigation into Wright’s case is ongoing, with no clear indication of when he might be released. Megan Thee Stallion’s fans are looking forward to a swift resolution so that she can fully dedicate herself to her music and career.
